 A '''wikilink''' (or '''internal link''') links a page to another page within English Wikipedia. Links are enclosed in doubled square brackets like this:
 *<nowiki>[[abc]]</nowiki> is seen as "[[abc]]" in text and links to page "[[abc]]".
-Use a vertical bar "|" (the "pipe" symbol) to create a link while labeling it with a different name on the original page.  The first term inside the brackets is the link (the page you would be taken to), while anything you type after the vertical bar is what that link looks like on the original page.  For example, <nowiki>[[Model Trademark Guidelines|start page]]</nowiki> is labeled "[[Model Trademark Guidelines|start page]]" here but links to page "[[Model Trademark Guidelines]]".
